Users and User Groups The application's User Manager lets you associate information with users like passwords, group membership, and contact information. Select Settings -> Permissions -> User Manager to see the User Manager. Figure 2-4. User Manager NOTE: This application comes with system users like OWAdmin. These are normal and cannot be deleted. Click action -> New to create a new user, or action -> Open to edit a user you have selected from the list. When you open the User (or User Group) editor, you can also configure permissions, as described in Permissions on page 39. NOTE: Best practice is to configure users, put them in a group (see User Groups on page 38), then assign permissions to the groups. Permissions accessible from individual users' screens override group permissions, so tailoring individual permissions is still possible. Common Tasks 37
